Saw your picture in the paper and I see you've married good
And I know that he can give you all the things I never could
But I know that he can't give you what you need most of all
So the door is always open and the light's on in the hall
Yes the door is always open and the light's on in the hall
And you know that I'll be waiting if you'd ever come to call
[ guitar ]
When night falls on that mansion and you're lying in his bed
When he begs for your attention will you think of me instead
When he reaches out to touch you is your face turned to the wall
Well the door is always open and the light's on in the hall
Yes the door is always open...
